It was an honor (and a lot of fun!!) to be part of this challenge! Thanks for having me on! I was also blown away by the art direction in Our Darkest Night. And the gameplay video doesn't show it, but I spent a good hour trying to master the Unreal RTS game 😂

Hahaha, my game was impossible unless you knew the starting strategy, then it becomes easy too easy xD Btw, your game is the one I got to try and it confused the crap out of me for a good 20min 🤣

the best way to say is; Visually it's Wishbone cause of style and cool narrative. mechanic wise, its Floky cause it has everything what people thinks of an RTS genre. But the most stressfull one seems Tumblewed's board game, as shit get's 0 to 100 really quick.

It's an interesting concept. The loophole maybe being that all three of these engines can be used to make similar high quality games, and it's really the devs vision being tested here.

[@Wishbone_Games]

I think thats not really a loophole, more of a point being proven, that all the arguments over engines really boils down to the individual devs. I think the difference between engines can only really be compared at a AAA scale, for indie i genuinely dont think it matters

[@liriolira1772]

I would really play "Our darkest night", i can see it being a multiplayer as well. You have little guys as long as theres people alive. If all die, game ends? Anyway, would love to see all of the concept improved, but this was my favorite.

[@Wishbone_Games]

Wowwww thats a cool idea, ill definitely keep this in mind. Would love to continue it sometime

[@sparky-xz1nb]

maybe something similar to the multiplayer aspect in fatal company. maybe make the engineer an npc that follows the players when they press a certain button. and possibly add guns so they can fend off the monsters while the engineer tries to fix/build stuff. if the engineer, or all players die, it is game over. monsters getting more aggressive as the players take more land but it becomes easier to see the monsters coming, and/or the monsters take damage in the light. (maybe a rare variant of monster that is immune to light so they players can't just keep the engineer safe on their turf forever since stronger variants will start appearing and if you don't have enough land/light you'll notice the monster when it is too late to save the engineer.

[@harrygameprod]

I think these timeboxed prototypes are great to make us focus on what actually matters to that game and experience. The great thing is that all of these prototypes can be fun and engaging to play, even without graphics, lighting, or anything. In the end the games are about gameplay, the challenges they provide, and making us feel smart during the process. Our Darkest Night was definitely my favorite here. By just having a few light sources and mostly being dark, you already start feeling more tense and focusing your eyes a lot more in what's happening in the game. That's awesome!

[@Wishbone_Games]

Thanks so much, i think its really useful as a dev to practice under time preassure because it really starts showing what your weaknesses are

[@harrygameprod]

@@Wishbone_Games so true. And it makes you see how much time you’re focusing on things that don’t contribute a lot to the game. When you have 1 or 2 days to create the full game, those details count a lot. But in full productions, a couple years long, many teams do a LOT of that. Wasting time with things that don’t really contribute to the experience. And because you have more time to develop, you don’t feel that waste day by day. Oh my, how many postmortems I have participated in where the team feels that way. “We spent a lot of time in things that we shouldn’t have”.

[@Floky]

Well said!

[@kumakaon9225]

Quick suggestion for a new version of the "Pass the game challenge" embrace chaos and the 2 cycle already done before, make it so 3~5 dev try to make a cohesive game development, and at the end of the first cycle add a "secret" dev, he works on the game only once, and his whole purpose in the development os to add chaos, he cannot remove anything but is incentivised to add as much ideas into the game as possible the second cycle for the first devs is then spent trying to make his chaos work with the game, polish the art, coding, vfx and sfx would make for a fun video format, reduce the hate comments from chaos mid-project (since the chaos is now a part of it, not an unforeseen/unnecessary twist like the centipedes [we will never forget the centipedes]) and the devs at the end of the project are more likely to add polishing than to add new stuff, since glitches and bugs will most likely be present after the Chaos dev's involvment in the project

Yo, Wishbone, im in your discord! Super hyped for omnipresence

[@Wishbone_Games]

[@allan710]

For me to be considered an RTS, you need multitasking, and those tasks most importantly are harassment, scouting, some rock paper scissors mechanics for units (oh, also units) and at least one resource (thus economy). Also important, you play it in real-time, and have upgrades. For example, you can make an RTS out of competing coffee shops, I can see build orders for coffees, scouting with employees on the other shop, a lot of multitasking and micro potential, early harassment with some pamphlet givers and sabotage, and finally, playing with the customer preferences with a Condorcet cycle for types of coffee and polls for knowing what is popular and propaganda to change it.

[@DefaultFlame]

Mad props to Floky for making something functional that could be seen as a game in 10 minutes. Edit, more props for the boat boat boat game.

[@eternal6179]

[@I_DontExistLol]

Can you make a game for me? I had I dream where someone was robbing a house, but they were a character in a video game. That had to collect three coins, each time getting harder, but the thing is the people who love there are not people, they are monsters. The first one you had to turn the light on but you can not wake them up, so you had to do it just so they would move so you could get the coin. Then I woke up so you can make the rest. I fell back asleep and this time they just stole the cat and left, but because it said it was now there ally, I think you can. make the cats like ally’s that can help you. You can make the people look like however you want, but my dream had them in a 3D world, but they looked 2D? I don’t know know how to explain it. That is all! And I love your video,
